The Collapse Begins in Changkong City

Wang Tang began to introduce the amusement park to Pado, saying, "If you don't think it's fun, we can look for an arcade or something."

Paddy put her finger to her lips: "What kind of games are played in this arcade?"

After organizing her thoughts, Wang Tang began to answer: "An arcade is a place full of all kinds of video games. You can find all kinds of game machines, such as shooting games, racing games, music games, and so on."

"Of course, you might not understand what these things are if I say it like this, but I can take you to see them, and if you think it's fun, we can play there."

Pado nodded: "Okay."

Wang Tang released his mental energy and, after searching for several minutes, finally found a game arcade in the north of the city.

"Found it, let's go." Wang Tang teleported directly to the arcade she had found with Pado.

With some curiosity, Pado pulled Wang Tang into the arcade. The arcade was rather dark inside, but it didn't feel unpleasant.

"How about we have some fun here?"

Pado nodded. "Okay, let's play here for a while then."

Upon hearing this, Wang Tang walked to the front desk and said, "Boss, get some coins."

"How many coins do you need?"

Wang Tang took out 100 yuan and said, "Let's start with 100 to test the waters."

"Okay," the shopkeeper said, taking a small basket from under the counter. "Here are 100."

After receiving the basket, Wang Tang glanced at it and knew that there were indeed 100 coins inside.

Wang Tang, carrying coins, walked past each arcade machine with Pado. Pado, noticing VR glasses in the distance, asked curiously, "What are those?"

Wang Tang smiled and said, "Why don't you try it and you'll see?"

Pado carefully put the VR glasses on her head. "There's nothing here. It's pitch black."

"Wait a minute, it'll be ready soon." Wang Tang took out her phone and scanned the QR code on the machine.

After the payment was successful with a "beep", Pado saw images appear in her previously dark glasses.

"Wow...! This thing is amazing!"

Wang Tang sat quietly to the side watching Pa Duo play. Why didn't he play? Well, it's because he didn't like it!

Wang Tang looked at a screen, which was the display screen of the VR headset that Pado was playing on.

The game Pado was playing was a shooting game. After trying it a few times, Pado finally figured out how to play the game.

From her initial appearance, Pado was instantly killed, gradually transforming into a killing machine. Pado almost wiped out every enemy that appeared in front of her.

"Is this guy's gaming talent just too high? He's already crushed the opponent in just over ten minutes. If he plays for a few more hours, he'll be invincible!"

Aside from not being very familiar with the game when she first started playing, once she became familiar with it, she discovered that with her keen senses honed over years of espionage, she could easily treat the opposing enemies as if they were AI opponents.

In a professional gamer's room, a man took off his VR headset and threw it on a nearby table, exclaiming, "Holy crap, is this really the kind of skill a human could achieve?"

"Is this cheating? I, a top professional player, can't even beat him. This must be cheating."

The man shook his head. "I refuse to believe I can't beat a cheater." After saying that, the man put on the VR headset again and continued playing the game.

"I must kill him today."

...............

Paddy yawned and took off her glasses.

Wang Tang looked at Pado with some confusion, "Aren't you going to play anymore?"

Pado nodded: "Hmm... they're bad at the game, so it's not fun, and you don't play with me anyway."

Wang Tang calmly said, "Then let's go play some games that two people can play together?"

"Let's go then." Pado put the VR glasses back in their place and followed Wang Tang...

Pado's action left the professional player who had been driven to despair by Pado completely bewildered when he encountered the character Pado had previously controlled: "Is he AFK? Why isn't he moving?"

After the man tentatively fired a shot at the machine gun and found that the character didn't move, he started to go on a killing spree. "Haha, without that guy, the other side is really weak."

………………

Wang Tang led Pa Duo to a machine whose screen was just right for the two of them to play together.

The game on the machine was similar to King of Fighters, but Wang Tang didn't recognize any of the characters, since they weren't from the same game; it was just a similar one.

Wang Tang asked with a smile, "Little Pado, would you like to try it?"

Pado nodded. "Okay." Wang Tang tossed in two coins.

Games start.

Four minutes later, Pado lost as expected. "Again...again...again..." Pado was repeatedly humiliated more than ten times. But Pado still managed to utter the words, "Again."

Seeing how persistent Pado was, Wang Tang started to deliberately go easy on her.

Finally, on Pado's 13th attempt, he won. "Yay! I beat you, Brother Wang Tang!"

Seeing Pado so happy, Wang Tang also praised her, "Yes, yes, Pado is indeed very strong."

Pado stood up and stretched. "Brother Wang Tang, let's change the game."

Wang Tang readily agreed to the suggestion, since they had been playing this game for over an hour and it was time to switch to something else.

"Pado, go see what you want to play."

Pado looked at them one by one, and finally spotted a dance machine. "How about this one?"

"Of course you can, then hurry up and stand on it." After saying that, Wang Tang put the coin in.

Pado excitedly stood on the dance machine and randomly selected a song, but little did he know that he had chosen the most difficult one on the machine, and began to dance to the rhythm of the music.

At first, her movements were a bit clumsy and she couldn't keep up with the rhythm, but soon her superb learning ability and physical coordination were on full display. Her dance steps became smoother and faster, attracting the attention of many people around her.

A girl with a ponytail nudged the man next to her and asked, "Do you think she can break this machine's record?"

The man shook his head. "Probably not. Although she's doing very well now, she made quite a few mistakes before. Unless she starts over, it will be difficult for her to surpass the record for first place on the dance machine."

A few minutes later, amidst cheers from the crowd, Pado broke the record of second place, and was only a few dozen points behind the first place.

Wang Tang asked with a smile, "How was it?"

Pado smiled and replied to Wang Tang, "This is alright."

"Should we try to break the first place record?"

After thinking for a moment, Pado said, "Of course... you can." After hearing Pado's answer, Wang Tang tossed in a few more coins.

Passersby were very surprised, exclaiming, "Wow, this beautiful girl is actually aiming to break the first place record!"
